OMG. This is so GREAT! I wish I could have watched this 10 years ago.

[@seikitomomi8413]

As someone who WAS clueless about multidimensional analysis BEFORE this video, I can safely say that AFTER this video I feel a lot better. Thank you for putting this out here. Very well done.

[@bogdanudovicic391]

This is the type of explanation that I believe brings the real, solid knowledge - an explanation that goes from the very basics, working up towards the point, while not leaving many things up for an assumption (but rather clarifying along the way very many points that might be "stumbling stones" otherwise). Well done and thank you.

You have explained so well that I watch the whole video in one take, which is not usual for me. Thank you very much.

This gives me a better understanding of the Pivot Tables and DAX formulas I put together in Excel along with how better to explain them to colleagues and others. Thanks Michael!

[@marcm.585]

Excellent! Content was relatable, relevant and non-technical. Clear and very well understood! Thank you. I do want to ask, data does not necessarily have to be quantitative does it? (i.e. can use qualitative data in the analysis)

Excellent explanation

[@Sabotronics]

Thanks a lot for the information. Does the video continue in a 2nd part? It ended almost suddenly

[@Shahriyar63]

Take this from me: Before the end of Q2 2021, this video will hit 1M+ views. People still didn't hear about MD analysis and once they do, this video will rock ! Very good video with extra attention to details. The structure of this video is awesome and this guy knows what he is talking about. Thank you Mr. Lamont for this wonderful video.

Excellent presentation! Thanks! One minor nit: At 15:55, to be in sync with the data presented before, aren't the total sales $2,500 and not $2,000?

Can I conclude that this entire video comes down to 2 words: Star Schema
